years of professional experience
I am a Psychology and Human Development student who takes pride in helping others, learning about lives beyond my own, and finding where I can best support people. Through my experiences in behavioral health, crisis support, and childcare, I have worked with people with a variety of different needs. These experiences have strengthened my communication, adaptability, and problem-solving skills and have motivated me to continue learning and growing. My work has given me a broader perspective on the world around me, and I look forward to expanding my knowledge and experience through each opportunity.
